I think you've probably read my Sonlight posts. :) I agree with Celee, that maybe combining for most of the subjects, but using separate readers to supplement.Kimberly @ Raising Oliveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06506681324581884632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7036528759304766052.post-38430362541272337772010-07-17T20:02:15.248-05:002010-07-17T20:02:15.248-05:00Although my 7 yr old is doing the same core as her...Although my 7 yr old is doing the same core as her older siblings, she won't be able to read all the readers so I'm supplementing from core 2 readers that have to do with American History. This way she gets to study the same topics and themes, but on her own level. I love that Sonlight is adaptable this way. Theoretically you could have high school kids in core 100, middle school kids in core 6/7 and younger elementary age kids in core 1/2.<br /><br />If I were you I would use your older kids' independent reading or math time to work with your K and p3/4 kids (2 hrs per day?). I would also encourage your younger ones (and maybe Julie, too) to join in your core 5 read aloud. I would read the readers to your K and p3/4, but pick a Bible curriculum to follow like the core 5 and just adapt it for your younger ones. That way the only really separate subject each day is the readers, but history, geography, Bible, and even Lit (read aloud) are taught together. This would probably save you an hour or so per day and make for less stress. Just a thought.Celeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04958942308350578991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7036528759304766052.post-90381005326307708582010-07-17T13:24:34.628-05:002010-07-17T13:24:34.628-05:00I know you will have it organized soon.
